The things were working fine till a week back. I have not installed anything new but my machine has started behaving in a weird manner. When I login desktop works fine but task bar does not respond for long time (freezes with in 2 seconds of login and does not respond for 7 to 8 minutes or more), Start button or icons on task bar freeze

Pressing ctrl+alt+delete does not open task manager, volume control icon, battery icon do not load.

Task manger can be opened if I press ctrl+alt+delete within 2 to 3 seconds of login but it does not show any application using resources (most of the time System Idel is 97 to 98 percent) still Start Button or other startup applications does not respond for long time

Apologize for the delay in response we get overwhelmed at times but we are trying our best to keep up.
If you have since resolved the original problem you were having would appreciate you letting us know If not please perform the following below so I can have a look at the current condition of your machine.

Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, including browsers, so that nothing other than HijackThis is open, then click Fix Checked. A box will pop up asking you if you wish to fix the selected items. Please choose YES. Once it has fixed them, please exit/close HijackThis.
